摘要
In a recent paper, a functional AM (ambiguity measure) is introduced and an attempt is made to show that this functional qualifies as a measure of total aggregated uncertainty in the Dempster-Shafer theory. We show that this attempt fails due to a particular error in the proof of one of the principal theorems in the paper. Some additional remarks are made regarding recent research pertaining to the subject of the discussed paper.
